When he found out about it, Shi Lei and two women were sitting together having breakfast, Shi Lei didn't care if he found it or not, but Xi Chupeng was very happy.

Shi Lei asked Xi Chupeng why, and Xi Chupeng told Shi Lei, "Mint leaves can calm the mind and improve eyesight, especially when the mental state is not good, drinking some mint tea is more effective than anything else."

Although Shi Lei has always maintained a skeptical attitude towards this point, he still cannot reduce Xi Chupeng's enthusiasm for the mint leaves. In order to hold the mint leaves, Xi Chupeng even deliberately set aside a bamboo tube.

This morning, Xi Chupeng lit a fire himself, saying that he was going to boil hot water for everyone and make mint leaf tea. Unexpectedly, when Xi Chupeng looked at the backpack, it was empty and there was nothing left.

Xi Chupeng was stupefied, he turned back to the place where the three of them were sitting, and asked, "Did you see the mint leaves? Shi Lei, could it be you who took them? Stop making trouble."

"I didn't take it." Shi Lei shook his head, looked at the two women, and asked, "Did you put the bamboo tube in your backpack?"

Guo Jingyi and Xi Chuyu both shook their heads, and Xi Chupeng squinted at the expressions of the three, knowing that they were not joking, and a bad premonition surged in his heart.

Shi Lei and Guo Jingyi obviously thought of that too. Seeing that none of the three said anything, Xi Chuyu took a bite of the jerky and asked vaguely: "What's wrong?"

Shi Lei looked calm, and said as usual: "Chu Peng, sit down and eat first." Saying that, he raised his hand and handed the bamboo tube on the side to Xi Chupeng, which contained freshly boiled hot water. Exudes a fresh and elegant bamboo fragrance.

Xi Chupeng sat down, held the bamboo tube with both hands and raised his head to drink a few mouthfuls of hot water. Then Shi Lei started to eat the jerky again. While biting the jerky, he calmly said in a voice that only four people knew: "Someone or some other animal must have taken it."

"Could it be that guy who stared at me and you that day?" Seeing Shi Lei's movements, Guo Jingyi understood that he was preventing the conversation from being overheard, so she also used the water to cover up the twitching of her lips when she spoke. Zhang He seemed to be swallowing water.

Xi Chuyu was puzzled, but she was not a fool. Seeing how cautious the three people were, she said vaguely without moving her lips, "Are we being targeted?"

"If that's not the case, why are the mint leaves gone?" Xi Chupeng said, raised his eyebrows, and said with some puzzlement: "Since it can steal the mint leaves silently, it means that it can also kill us. strangeness……"

"We designed to catch it, so we know what it is." Shi Lei's mouth hooked up, revealing a sneer: "I want to see what purpose it has."

Xi Chupeng glanced at Shi Lei, "What can you do?"

"Didn't it steal the mint leaves? Let's use the trap to catch it!" Shi Lei looked at the bamboo tube in front of him playfully, and said meaningfully, "Even if it doesn't steal the mint leaves, it must have a purpose after staring at us for so long."

"It's definitely not easy for this guy to escape the guard." Guo Jingyi was not as optimistic as Shi Lei.

Shi Lei nodded lightly, "So, this time we have to change our vigilance method."

"How do you want to change?" Xi Chupeng looked at Shi Lei, "If we set a trap, that guy will definitely see it."

"Shi Lei, tell me quickly." Xi Chuyu looked at Shi Lei anxiously, urging him repeatedly.

Shi Lei raised his hand to pick up the bamboo tube on the ground, "One person will act as an open guard, and one person will lie down and pretend to sleep. The weapon is the bark on our bodies."

"It's too difficult. If it were me, I would fall asleep after lying down for a while." Xi Chuyu pouted and said with some embarrassment.

Shi Lei calmly looked around from the corner of his eye, it was quiet and there was no movement, but no one knew if that guy was lurking somewhere.

"This is our plan on the bright side. We have to make it more obvious, let that guy know, and then find a chance to let him steal things again. As long as he gets carried away, our chance will come."

Shi Lei took a sip of the warm water, and said his plan lightly. As soon as the words came out, the three of them were stunned. Xi Chupeng and Xi Chuyu looked at each other, and Guo Jingyi raised the corners of her mouth and smiled lightly.

"No matter what it is, we must catch it. It is a potential danger and cannot be kept." Shi Lei narrowed his eyes, and a sharp light flashed quickly in his eyes.

"Okay, let's continue on our way when we're full. I'll go and put out the fire." Seeing that the three of them had finished eating the jerky, Shi Lei got up and patted the dust on his trousers, covered the bamboo tube, and put it on the three in front of people.

The speed of Shi Lei and his party is not too fast. One is that the mountain road in the dense forest is too rough. Except that Xi Chupeng has received professional training and Shi Lei often survives in the wild and can withstand high-intensity walking. The two women are inferior many.

No matter how Xi Chuyu becomes a policeman, he is only a civil servant. He was pampered and spoiled at home since he was a child, not to mention Guo Jingyi, the eldest lady of the Guo family, the only daughter of the Guo family, let alone the mountain roads, she is usually picked up by car. car delivery.

Shi Lei and the others are on their way this time. In order to walk a long way every day, they don't rest except for eating. Not a single edible plant.

At noon, as usual, he found an open space, sat down to rest and eat, Shi Lei looked at the three people, felt the low pressure on them, and sighed silently in his heart.

Shi Lei himself couldn't help but wonder whether his decision to come to this small island was right or wrong, but now he has no room to back down.

"Don't be discouraged. We searched for so long to get food on the previous island. Here we are only going to the periphery. There must be food inside."

Shi Lei calmly analyzed: "We are on the outside to familiarize ourselves with the environment first. Now our position is in the northeast direction, and we will walk forward. After the trouble is solved, we will go inside."

There was something in Shi Lei's words, and all three of them knew it. They didn't mention it during the lunch break. When they were on their way in the afternoon, Xi Chupeng spotted the mint leaves again. This time, Xi Chupeng directly put the mint leaves in his backpack.

"We must catch it!"

"Of course, we'll..."

While Xi Chupeng was collecting mint leaves, Shi Lei specially called the two women to stop. The three of them huddled together and murmured. Continue on your way.

At the beginning of the night, Shi Lei and Xi Chuyu were vigilant, Xi Chuyu was clearly awake, Shi Lei was secretly, and Guo Jingyi secretly tied the backpack with bark and put it aside.

Shi Lei wasn't sure if that guy would be fooled, just like this two dials alternated, who knows, when he woke up, the backpack was gone.
